Will all of the stations on the market fit the controllers with the jackets on - or should I go for any in particular?

I don't want to be taking the controllers out every time I charge them - the connection to the motion plus won't last ...

Many thanks!

However, I understand that the UK model is not compatible with South America and the Chilean prices seem a bit high so I was wondering if the North American version could be used in Chile?

With the recent price drop over there it would make it a great bargain pressie :-)

Thanks in advance for your words of wisdom...

First, my english is not very good... so be cool with me!:oops:

Second, before asking this question, i've done many search on google (and this forum), but without a answer for my question.

So, I have a 42" Sharp Aquos LCD television and i'm at 8-10 feets from, but wathever if I place the sensor bar on top or bottom of the TV, I always have a "jerky" cursor, wathever if I put the sensitivity to the max (5).

The frame of my TV is a little bit shiny, so I think I have few reflection of the sun or other light in the room on the frame of my TV, so the wiimote see these "false" reflection like the "real" infrared, and made my cursor go jurky.

I have 2 wires sensorbar (the original and one from DealExtreme). So:

- What can I do to "boost" the strength of the signal from the sensorbar?
- Can I put the 2 sensorbar one on each other, but how can I power the 2nd sensorbar? I have a multi adapter, from 1.5v to 12v, but can I power the 2nd with this kind of adapter? the V it's not my major problem, but the mA.... i don't want to blow the 2nd sensorbar, because in my house setup, the 2nd will be ON 24h/24h....

I've see from the web many "9v hack sensorbar" but I don't want to go this way. I have 2 wired sensorbar, and I want to use it.

Does someone can help me to get the most power from the IR sensorbar? ]]> Wii Rambytes http://www.avforums.com/forums/wii/1118975-need-help-my-wiimote-sensor-bar.html http://www.avforums.com/forums/wii/1118532-balance-board-battery-not-charging.html Fri, 06 Nov 2009 21:02:44 GMT just tried charging a madcatz balance board battery and intially the light came on but when i tried it the wii says the batteries need replacing any one had similar problems and is it a return to seller job cheers just tried charging a madcatz balance board battery and intially the light came on but when i tried it the wii says the batteries need replacing

When Motion Plus is fitted the + and Home keys don't work on one of my remotes (the remote works perfectly on other games with no Motion Plus). This means I can't pause the game to recalibrate the motion plus or exit to the Wii menu (so I have to switch the power off to get out of the game).:thumbsdow

I tried the faulty(?) remote with both Motion Plus units and get the same problem. My other remote works fine with both Motion Plus units.

Has anyone else had this problem? If so were you able to fix it?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone here has tried A HD BOX PRO with their Wii and HDTV. My TV (samsung LE19R86BDX) has a VGA input, and I was wondering if I plugged my component cables into the HD BOX PRO then plugged it in the VGA slot, would I get a better picture. Because my Wii picture through just my component cables to the TV is shockingly bad. It's so bad I find my Wii very hard to play and it's not getting much use :(

I have a friend who has a rear projector which he uses to view Sky HD and play games via the Wii on.

He has a Denon amp (forgive me, don't know the model) but it's quite new and has HDMI on it etc.

He has previously only played the Wii through the amp via a composite connection.

We bought a component lead for the Wii last night (official Nintendo) and couldn't get the picture going properly. All we got was black and white. We also had difficulty in getting sound as we could not see on the back of his amp what audio channels corresponded to the component channels.

I saw 2 component channels which were labelled "monitor". We didn't use either of those.

There were 3 further component channels - when we plugged in the component leads all we got was a black and white picture.

Is it possible that the Denon amp will not put out a proper picture via component if it has a HDMI device running through it (like a Sky HD box) ?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. ]]> Wii DJ Dave http://www.avforums.com/forums/wii/1111271-connecting-wii-denon-amp-via-component.html http://www.avforums.com/forums/wii/1110104-got-few-questions-about-any-potential-problems-i-may-have-if-i-buy-preowned-wii.html Tue, 27 Oct 2009 08:02:25 GMT 1.
